4oFF/Ica MEANS FOR ASlIBLINd ELEMENTS BY ETING Flix Amiot, Neuilly-sur- Seine, France Application January 31,1939', serial No. 53,925 In Luxemburg July 27, 1938 9 Claims.

lThe invention relates to meansfor assembling' elements by riveting, particularly but not exclusively such means for riveting aeronautical I construction elements, for example wings or fuselage covering elements, and has for its main object so to construct said means that they respond, better than hitherto, to the various desiderata of practice and particularly in regard to rapidity of Operation In general, in Vaccordance with the principal' feature of the invention, means for assembling elements by riveting are so arranged that a cliscontinuous relative movement ofthe elements. to be assembled takes place with respect to at least two groups of tools working simultaneously which tools effect, the rst, the punching of the said elements and, the second (after the insertion of a rivet in the orifice punchedby the first group of toolsat the time of the preceding operation) the actual riveting of the said rivet to unite the said elements.

The invention also further comprises other features which will appear in the course of the following description.

In order that the invention may be better understood, it will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are given byway'of example and in which:-

Fig. 1 shows, in end view with parts in section,

a. riveting machine constructed Aaccording to the invention. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2--2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 2a is a `view on the line 2a-2a of Fig. .2.

Fig. 2b is a section on the line 2li-2b of Fig. 2. Fig. 3 is a view on the line 3 3 of Fig. 4. .i Fig. 4 is a view on the line l-ll of Fig. 3. A Fig. 5 is a view on the line 5--5 of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a view on the line 6-5 of diagrammatic Fig. 7. l

Fig, 7 shows, in a diagrammatic manner, a part gozhe controlling system of one of the aforesaid Iii the drawings `the means for assembling elements by riveting are shown for dealing vwith aeronautical construction elements consisting of a sheet-metal covering I and stiffeners 2, and the following or a similar procedure is adopted.

The arrangement is suchthat the elements I and 2 together have discontinuous relative movei ments with respect to at least two groups of tools working simultaneously to effect the punching of the said elements and the actualriveting of a rivet. The latter, it should be noted, is inserted in the orice (by hand or automatically) after the Fig. 8 shows, in outside elevation and on a larger scale, the upper head ofA thelcarriage of thelmachine.

Figs` 9 and 10 show,` respectively in elevation aforesaid carriage.

Fig. l1 is a view on the line II--II of Fig. 8.

Figs.'12 and 13 show. respectively inside view `and in plan with parts in section, certain details of the lower head of the machine.

Fig. 14, finally, is a'diagram relating to a particular controlling system for the machine.

` with parts in section and in plan view,.the yg'eny eral assembly of the upper and lower heads of the said orifice has been punched by the first group of tools at the time of a preceding operation.

Although, as -above stated, the rivets may be inserted manually, it is preferable that this operation is performed automatically, for example by a rivet-supplying device A more 'explicitly mentioned hereafter.

Several groups of punching tools and several `groups of \riveting tools working simultaneously 'could be provided. In the following, however, it will be assumed, by way of example, that the machine which for securing the stiffeners 2 on ,the metal sheet I, comprises, on the one hand, one group of punching tools. namely a punch 3 and a die 4, and on the other hand one group of riveting tools constituted `by a riveting-die 5 and hold-up I i, the rivet-supplying device A being arranged between these two groups and at a distance from each equal to the pitch of the riveting, or at a multiple of this distance.

The discontinuous relative movement of the elements to be assembled therefore is such that the line along which the riveting must be effected has, with respect to the tools, periodic relative movements equal to the pitch of the riveting, which pitch can, for example, be 20 mm. or 30 mm., or otherwise.

The relative movement can be given either by moving the elements I and 2 with respect to the tools, or as will be assumed hereafter, by leaving the said elements stationary and mounting the tools on a movable support 1 which permits the tools to be moved according to the line of as'- sembly of the elements I and 2.

For this last purpose the elements' are arranged in a substantiallyhorizontal plane and the support 1 is given for example a C shape, its extremities being provided respectively with an upper head I1 and with a lower head 1: disposed in opposition, one above and the other below the elements I and 2.

The upper head 'l1 carries the punch 3 with supplier Aand the hold-up 6, and the lower head 12 the die 4 and the riveting-die 5.

It should be observed that it will be advantageous to provide the same machine with several supports 1, for example four, working simultaneously in separate zones to avoid elongations and accidental displacements of the elements I and 2.

The machine will moreover be arranged so that the supports 1 can be brought into a zone outside that occupied bythe elements I and 2. These latter then being disengaged from between the heads of the supports, can be moved in a direction perpendicular to that of the line of riveting and a fresh line of the sheet I brought to the paths to be taken by the tools. It will suffice, in these circumstances, to engage a new stiffener between the heads after having brought the supports back into working position in order to effect a fresh lineI of riveting,

For this purpose and with regard first of all to the machine in its entirety and especially to the devices comprised thereby for the movement and` guiding of each of the supports 1, it is formed, for example, as shown in the drawings, as follows.

Each support 1 rests on two rails 8 and 9 parallel to the lines of riveting to -be effected, through the intermediary of two rollers I for the rail 8 and one roller I I for the rail 9.

There are provided, for guiding the support 1 and to take into account the transverse reactions, lateral rollers I2 which bear, for example, on the sides of the rail 8.

For applying the elements I and 2 to be assembled the one against the other there are provided rollers I3 divided for example into two groups of two mounted on beams, these rollers being carried .by the upper head 11 of the support and applying the aforesaid elements againsta part I4 (hereafter termed la comb) united with the framework of the machine and which comprises recesses for the passage of the tools carried by the lower head. There are also provided for the same purpose reaction rollers I5 carried by the lower head 12 and bearing against the lower face of the comb I4 and, 1in-ally, lateral rollers I6, also mounted on the lower head 12 and carried, as shown by Figs. 12 and 13, by beams |02 pivoted around xed axles |03 and subjected to the action of return springs |04, the said rollers being intended to keep the stiiener 2 (in course of xing) applied against the edge of the comb I4.

These various sets of pressing rollers (I3, I5 and I6) are controlled respectively by hydraulic jacks such as I1, I8 and I9 which are under the control of a single Valve so that it is possible, by opening the said valve after having suitably ar ranged the elements I and 2 to be assembled, to keep the said elements applied the one against the other during the whole of the riveting operation.

A driving system for the support 1 is provided which is arranged so that it causes the said support to advance in a discontinuous manner by amounts equal tothe pitch of the riveting.

Such a system is constituted, for example as represented in Fig. 2 where the support 1 carries a worm 20 to coact with a rack 2l, united with the framework of the machine and arranged parallel to the rails B and 9. The worm 20 is driven, through the intermediary of a train of gears 22, 23, 24, by a shaft 25 adapted to be driven/in one direction only, through the intermediary of a free Wheel device 26, from A=a rack 21 gearing with a pinion 28 secured at the end of the said shaft.

The shaft 25 has keyed thereon an index plate 29 comprising a notch 30 in which can engage, at each rotation of the sh-aft 25, a locking finger 3I urged towards this position by a spring 32 and subjected to the action of a fork 33 carried by one extremity of a bent lever 34 Ipivoted around a fixed axle 35 and comprising, at its other extremity, a roller 36 with which coacts a cam 31 united with the rack 21. The said cam is such that it causes the release `of the index plate 29 towards the end of thel non-driving stroke of the rack 21, that is to say after a series of punching and riveting operations has been effected.

The -rack 21 is controlled hydraulically, for

example it is carried by a movable cylinder 38' guided by a piston 39, on both sides of which a. liquid under pressure can be sent alternately by conduits 40 and 4 I, this hydraulic system itself being subjected to the general controlling device vof the machine which will be more explicitly mentioned hereafter.

With regard to the means Iprovided for controlling the operative movements of the tools as well as the movement of the support 1 (that is to say the movement of the r-ack 21), they are constituted by an electrical system for opening or closing cocks disposed on a compressed air circuit, this latter then being able, as the case may be, either to actuate the tools directly, or to act through the intermediary of -a hydraulic transmission system.

Moreover, arrangements are preferably made so'that on the one hand, for the hydraulically actuated parts, both strokes are assured-by the action of the liquid under vpressure and, on the other hand, for the parts actuated directly by the compressed air, the forward stroke is caused by the air pressure and the return stroke assured by It is possible, taking accountb of what has just been stated, to proceed in numerous Ways to constitute such actuating means. A preferred embodiment, however, is illustrated by the drawings and according vto which the following procedure is adopted.

The various electrical circuits of the machine are controlled by a plurality of cams 42 (Figs. 3 and 4) .secured on the same shaft 43 driven in rotation by a motor 44, for example through the intermediary of gears 45 and 46 and of a helical pinion 41 meshing with a Worm 48 secured on a shaft- 49 itself connected to the aforesaid motor through an electromagnetic clutch 50 adapted to assure, in addition, if desired, the braking of the mechanism when its plate 501 is attracted against a stationary armature 502.

A commutator or'the like is provided which permits of exciting the rotating, armature 50 or the stationary armature 502 according as it is de- 'return springs.

sired to effect the running .or the stopping of l the machine.

Each cam 42 is made to coact with an oscillating contact-maker 5I adapted to close the electric circuit on al contact 521er on a contact 522 according as it is controlled by the upper 'part 421 or by the lower part 422 ofthe cam. ,l

There are mounted on each of the circuits controlled respectively by the contacts 521 and 522, two electromagnets 531 and 532 (Fig. 6) which are made to coact with a cock or the like `54 connected to a source of compressed air.

In the case of parts controlled directly by compressed air (die 4, rivet-supplier A, hold-up 6) arrangements are made' so that, according as it is controlled by the electromagnet 531 or by the electromagnet 532, the cock 54 assures the placing under pressure of the driving cylinder of the part considered, or on the contrary makes In the case of the riveting-die 5, which mustbe actuated hydraulically, arrangements are made so that the two strokes of this part are caused by a pressure of liquid, for which purpose, for example, as shown by Figs. 6 and 7, there are supplied, by the same cock 54, two cylinders 55 and 56 in which move pistons such as shown a rod16 passing with slight friction through the sleeve 68 and the piston 69 and carrying at its upper extremity a double-acting piston 1l.

A fluid-tight joint 12 is provided for separating the cylinder 61 into two chambers 611 and 612 in which can be accommodated respectively v, the pistons 694and 1I, the said fluid-tight joint at 51 for the cylinder `55. Each of these pistons is connected to a plunger such as 56 adapted to be projected toa greater or less extent into a chamber 59 containing the driving liquid, for example oil, and connected, by a conduit 661 or 602, to the driving system proper of the rivetingdie-carrier which will be more explicitly mentioned hereafter.

The cock 54 is arranged in such a way that this purpose two disc valves 6l; and 622 connected by a rod 63 such that, when one of the valves is removed from its seating and from this fact makes the cylinder 55 or 56 communicate with the source of compressed air by a conduit 641 or 642, the other valve isA applied` on. its seating and permits that one of the aforesaid cylinders which is not in action to communicate with the atmosphere by the corresponding conduit 641 or 642. i

In the case, finally, of the punch 3 andthe sheet-clamp 3', recourse is had to controlling devices (electromagnetic cocks, compressed air cylinders) of the kind previously described but account is taken, for their arrangement, of the fact that the ldescent of the sheet-clamp mus't take place before/that of the punch. For this purpose and `for example as shown by Fig. 8, a double electromagnet E1 coacts with a cock R1 for placing under or free of pressure a compressed air cylinder Ci corresponding, when it is under pressure, to the down-stroke of the sheetclamp 3', the hydrauliccircuit connected to the said cylinder terminating in the parts to be controlled by a conduit 65. Also a double electror magnet E2 coacts with a cock Rz supplying two compressed air cylinders C2 and Cz corresponding respectively to the down-stroke of the punch and to the up-stroke of the assembly of the said punch and sheet-clamp, the hydraulic circuitsconnected to these cylinders terminating in the `parts to be controlled respectively `by conduits 66 andA 66'. Then with regard to the various tools as well as the mechanisms to'be associated therewith so that they can be actuated as has just been stated, some hydraulically and the others pneuslide inthe cylinder 61 and carrying at its other extremity` a single-acting piston 66, whilst the punch3 is connected to the lower extremity of being traversed along its axis by the rod 10. Opening into the upper chamber 611, on each side of the piston 1I, are the liquid conduits 66 and 66' the placing under pressure of lwl'iich is assured by the pistons moving respectively in the cylinders C2 and C'z. Further, there is made to open into the lower chamber 612, above the piston 69, the liquid conduit 65 relating to the cylinder C1 and carried by the rod 10 is au key 13 adapted to slide, upon the commencementof the up-stroke of the punch-carrier 1U, in a groove 14 disposed in the sleeve 68 and then to bear against.. the end of the Said groove to as-P sure the up-strokeof the aforesaid sleeve and of the sheet-clamp 3 connected thereto.

The operation of this assembly is the following:

The conduit 65 being placed under pressure by the compressed air acting in the cylinder C1, thepiston 69 moves down carrying with it the sleeve 6B and the sheet-clamp 3' 'which applies itself against the elements l and 2 to be assembled.

Aswsoon as `this rst phase is effected the conduit 66 is placed under pressure by the compressed air in the cylinder C2 and the piston 'Il causes the downward movement of the punch 3 and the punching of the aforesaid elements. It is then that the conduit 66 is placed under pressure by the compressed air in the cylinder C'z, the piston 1l is urged towards its upper position and can rise from the fact that the conduit 66 is no longer under pressure; the punch 3 disengages itself from the elements l and 2 and the key 13abuts againstthe end of the groove 14, assuring from this instant the upward movement of the sleeve 68 and of the sheet-clamp 3".

With regard now to the die 4 with which the punch 3 must coact, it is carried by a part 15 mounted to slide in the lower head 1e of the machine and the said part is so controlled that when it comes into working position it is supported, whereby the stresses it receives in this position are taken by the abutment of mechanical members and not by the pneumatic driving system which has brought it into the working position. Y

This result can be attained especially by interposing, between the part 15 and a bracket 16 united with the lower head 12, two links 11 and 18 arranged in V formation with the apex pivoted to the extremity of the rod ,19 of a piston 66 mounted in a cylinder 8l connected to a source of l compressed air through the intermediary of an electromagnetic cock of the kind shown by Fig. 6. The rod 19 is subjected to the action of return springs 62 tending to close the V formed by the links 11 and 18, therefore to retract the diecarrier 15, whilst the action of the compressed air causes the pivoting axis 83 of thesaid links on the rod 19 to pass beyond the fdead centre" of. the toggle-system thus formed, that is the line joining their pivoting axes respectively on the die-carrier 15 and the bracket 16.

It is understoodl that with such a controlling mechanism the stresses received by the die-carrier 15 will be transmitted, through the intermediary of the supported links 11 and 16, to the fixed bracket 16, the pneumatic driving system having only` to be suiciently powerful to bring cylinder 88 at the-extremities of which terminate the conduits 601 and 602 relating respectively to the cylinders 55 and 56 (Fig. 7) and assuring,

the first, the raising of the riveting-die 5 and of the sheet-clamp 84 and, the second, the lowering of these two parts.

Regarding the hold-up 8 with which the riveting-die 5 must coact in order to assure the' actual'riveting operation, it is controlled by a system of toggle links 11', 18' similar to that described with reference to the controlling mechanism for the die the pressure of the compressed air sent into a cylinder 8|' bringing the said links into the supporting position against the 'action of springs 82'.

With regard, now, to the rivet-supplyingdevice A and its actuating mechanism, they are with advtange constituted according to the arrangements described in applicants co-pending application Serial No. 253,926, filed January 31, 1939.

According to this the device A, as shown in Fig. 11, comprises an injector mechanism 89 formed by a cylinder in which can be accommodated a certain number of rivets adapted to be ejected by rod coacts, on the one hand, with the hammer 93 through the intermediary of a driving finger 91 returned into the upper position b'y a spring 91 and, on the other hand, with the mechanism 89 (which is subjected to the action of a return spring 98) throughthe intermediary of a movable abutment finger v99 mounted on'the same axis |00 as the finger 91 and driving this latter by a nose |0| after the mechanism 89 has come into alignment belowy the aforesaid hammer 93. Y

It should be noted that a machine such as has i just been described could be provided with a .that the assemblyof curved elements could be effected according to curved generatrices. It is `sufficient for this purpose to give the guiding rails of the supports the desired curvature in the plane of operation of the tools. Although the machine described is adequate for Iobtain a blow by blow operation of the machine, that is to say to permit the operator to start the,operation of the tools of the machine and then, by another operation, the movement of the support, and so on.

For this purpose and for exa ple, as shown by Fig. 14, there is shunted on t e'circuit I1 of the motor for the driving of the machine, .a conductor I2 on which is disposed a contact-maker` |06 and an interrupter |01 subjected to the action of a cam |08 secured on the cam-carrying shaft of the machine, which cam is given such a shape that, when the machine operates in consequence of the closing of the contact-maker |06, the interrupter |01 is opened when the tools have finished working, a safety angle a (equal for example to 15) being provided so that stopping takes place in 'any case before vthe mechanisms for moving the supports forward have been actuated.

With regard then to these latter mechanisms, there is provided for controlling them a shunt circuit similar to the foregoing, the said circuit being brought into action when the action of the tools is finished.

This bloW-by-blow controlling system will with advantage be utilised at the time of the positioning operations of the first and last rivets.

Means may likewise be provided, such as interrupters arranged on the circuitsto which theelectromagnetic cocks correspond, for putting out of action the punch and the die when a line of rivets is completed, or more exactly when the rivets which have been riveted in position by the operating parts of the preceding support are encountered. This avoids, at the time of the insertion and of the riveting of the last rivets of the line, the punch becoming damaged against the head of a rivet already in position.

Finally, in order to prevent, in the case of breakdown of one of the supports 1, the following support driving it back, the extreme parts of each support may be provided with electric feelers or the like adapted to assure the stopping of the motor driving a support when the said support meets the following support-or a mark intended to limit its movement.

From the above the means for assembling the elements and 2 by riveting and the operation of these means according to the invention appear sufficiently clearly for it to be unnecessary to enter into any complementary explanation with regard thereto.

, Such means present, among other advantages, that of being able to be operated by a limited staff, for example one attendant for each support, and that of performing -rapidly the riveting operations, the rivets easily being able to be -.placed in position, for example at the rate of v riveting, comprising two groups of tools some of its purposes, it is preferable to provide in addition a certain number of safety devices which will be more explicitly mentioned hereafter.
